Updated Pre-Feasibility for Atlantic Projects
Updated Pre-Feasibility for Atlantic Projects
NPV5 of A$468 million and Post Tax IRR of 37.3% at US$2,000/oz gold price
Highlights
The Pre-Feasibility study for the consolidated 15-Mile and Beaver Dam Projects has been updated with fresh
assumptions utilising the relocated Touquoy processing plant at full production capacity of 2.1 million tonnes per
annum. The results are very attractive, offering a capital-efficient project with strong economics, should the permitting
environment improve in Canada (and in particular Nova Scotia) under the proposed Canadian Federal regulatory
environmental approvals reforms.
• Significant Economic Contribution to Nova Scotia and Canada: Capital construction cost investment of nearly
C$200 million in the first twelve months after environmental approval, with a further C$1.03 billion in spending over
the Project’s planned operating life. More than 1,000 direct jobs in construction and over 300 direct jobs in the
operating phase are anticipated – rural and well paid.
• Upgraded Environmental Protection Design Elements: Efficient infrastructure layout to fit within environmental
and social constraints, with the open pit backfilling of waste leading to final landforms more closely aligned with the
original project area. Pit optimisation and efficient layout designs drastically reduce disturbance at the Beaver Dam
project.
• Strong Project Economics: Optimised project study with improved processing rate, operating costs and
optimised overall design. Post-tax NPV (discount rate 5%) of C$411 million (A$468 million) and post-tax IRR of
37.3% using a long-term gold price of US$2,000 per ounce (exchange rates of C$1.00 = US$0.78 and C$1.00 = A
$1.14).
• Capital Efficient Outcome: Initial capital of a modest C$194 million (A$222 million), including a C$26 million
contingency, is achieved as a result of the relocation of a substantial portion of Touquoy process plant. Capital
includes mine pre-production, mine fleet, processing and infrastructure. Additional capital cost of C$43 million
incurred in Year 5 of the Life of Mine to bring on the 450,000 oz Beaver Dam satellite pit development.
• Low unit costs: Life of mine All-In Sustaining Cost for this low strip ratio project estimated to be US$1,025 per
ounce (A$1,499 per ounce). Synergies with shared equipment and services across 15-Mile and Beaver Dam
reduces overall unit costs.
• Stable Production Profile: Average annual production of 74koz of gold produced over the 11 year mine life.
• Short Construction and Ramp-Up Time Frame: Optimised tailings dam construction and the re-use of existing
Touquoy mill equipment reduces the construction to one year. Utilisation of existing equipment from the Touquoy
mine will minimise capital inflation and lead times, de-risk commissioning, and allow a quick ramp up to commercial
production.
St Barbara Limited (“St Barbara” or the “Company”) (ASX: SBM) is pleased to announce the completion of an
updated Pre-Feasibility Study (PFS) for the 15-Mile and Beaver Dam Projects, located in Trafalgar and Marinette
respectively in Nova Scotia, prepared in accordance with Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results,
Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves (“the JORC Code”).

Significant Intercept of 31 m at 6.1 g/t Au at Sor
17 October 2024
Significant Intercept of 31 m at 6.1 g/t Au at Sorowar – Pigiput Trend
Highlights
Assay results have been received for the first 13 resource definition, exploration and sterilisation drill
holes (SDH570 to SDH582) from the FY25 Simberi drill program, significant intercepts from the
Sorowar – Pigiput Trend include:
o SDH576: 31 m @ 6.1 g/t Au from 35 m, including 8 m @ 20.1 g/t Au from 53 m, including
4 m @ 37.8 g/t Au from 54 m,
o SDH578: 45 m @ 1.5 g/t Au from 5 m,
o SDH580: 25 m @ 1.9 g/t Au from 17 m, including 3 m @ 8.2 g/t Au from 35 m,
o SDH581: 31 m @ 1.7 g/t Au from 96 m, including 8 m @ 3.9 g/t Au from 111 m,
o SDH582: 20 m @ 2.3 g/t Au from 21 m, including 8 m @ 4.2 g/t Au from 25 m and 19 m @
2.8 g/t Au from 50 m, including 14 m @ 3.5 g/t Au from 52 m.
• Resource definition holes SDH576 and SDH582 both intersected significant near-surface higher-
grade mineralisation, extending vertically between 15 m and 40 m below the sulphide Ore Reserve
pit design.
• Mineralisation intersected in both SDH576 and SDH582 remains open along strike to the southeast
and down dip.
St Barbara Limited (“St Barbara” or the “Company”) (ASX: SBM) is pleased to announce the completion of
24 diamond drill holes from the proposed 62 hole FY25 sulphide drilling program, with assay results returned for the first 13 holes (including sterilisation drill holes SDH572, SDH577 and SDH579)
These include the first new results reported from the Sorowar – Pigiput Trend since June 2024 (refer to the ASX release on 17 June 2024 titled “More Encouraging Assay Results from Sorowar – Pigiput Mineralised Zone”). This series of results forms part of the FY25 resource definition, exploration and sterilisation drill program comprising 62 holes for 9,000 m that commenced on 1 July 2024 at the Simberi Operations in Papua New Guinea (PNG). The program includes approximately 4,750 m of resource definition drilling at both the Sorowar-Pigiput Trend and the Samat deposit; and approximately 4,250 m of exploration and sterilisation drilling testing in six further areas. Drilling is progressing ahead of schedule with approximately 40% of the overall program completed.
St Barbara Managing Director and CEO Andrew Strelein said:
“The decision to move quickly to follow up on the FY24 discovery of the new Sorowar – Pigiput mineralised zone has been rewarded with hole SDH576 returning 31 metres at 6.1 g/t Au from just 35 metres, including 8 metres at 20.1 g/t Au.”
“This assay result is another very encouraging broad intercept at shallow depth in this new mineralisation
zone between Sorowar and Pigiput pits, located immediately below the sulphide Ore Reserve pit design.
Hole SDH533, drilled as part of our FY24 program, is located 27 m immediately up-dip and forms part of the same trend, and returned 45 metres at 2.2 g/t Au from 0 metres including 10 metres at 5.1 g/t Au from 26 metres. An additional hole is planned to test the mineralisation 40 metres down dip from hole SDH576, some 50 metres below the sulphide Ore Reserve pit design.”
“Hole SDH582 included 20 metres at 2.3 g/t Au from 21 metres and 19 metres at 2.8 g/t Au from 50 metres
and is another very encouraging intercept at shallow depth in between Sorowar and Pigiput pits, located
between 15 and 40 metres vertically below the sulphide Ore Reserve pit design.”
“The shallow high-grade mineralisation intersected in both SDH576 and SDH582 remains open along strike to the southeast and down dip to the southwest.”
“During the December quarter we anticipate the return of assay results for the remainder of the 24 resource definition, exploration and sterilisation holes drilled to date at Sorowar – Pigiput trend and Pigibo North. The sterilisation and exploration holes have been proposed to close out the mineralisation boundaries and are important for the finalisation of pit designs and waste deposition plans.”

Update on Strategic Options
Update on Strategic Options for Atlantic and Simberi
St Barbara Limited (“St Barbara” or the “Company”) (ASX: SBM) provides an update on its plans to separate the Atlantic Gold Operations (“Atlantic”) from the Company, announced on 12 February 2025 1 (“Atlantic Separation Process”).
The Atlantic Separation Process followed a strategic review of St Barbara’s portfolio (“Strategic Review”), which considered a number of different options, and concluded, at the time, that a separation of Atlantic from the broader St Barbara business had the potential to maximise value for shareholders and allow the 15-Mile Processing Hub to be developed on a timeline independent of the Company’s development timetable for the expansion of the Simberi Operations (“Simberi”).
To date, the Company has not received a proposal for the Atlantic assets that provides St Barbara shareholders with a sufficient participation in the future potential value realisation from the 15-Mile Processing Hub Project. In addition, the permitting processes (including of environmental approvals) and government support for resource development in Nova Scotia are improving rapidly and, as announced 15 September 2025,2 St Barbara now has the potential opportunity to apply to re-open the Touquoy mine to process low and medium grade stockpiles that remained at closure.
In parallel to the Atlantic Separation Process, St Barbara engaged Macquarie Capital (Australia) Limited to evaluate strategic options that may unlock the value of Simberi for shareholders, including a potential sale of part or all of the operation (“Simberi Process”). This followed the receipt of unsolicited expressions of interest in Simberi and requests to undertake due diligence. St Barbara’s objective for undertaking the Simberi Process at this time was to be in a position to consider any firm proposals before management will need to be focused on finalising preparations for funding associated with a Final Investment Decision on the Simberi Expansion Project (“FID”). FID is currently anticipated later this year or early calendar 2026. Appointment of advisors on funding is anticipated to commence in the coming weeks.
By way of an update on the Simberi Process, several parties are undertaking advanced due diligence enquiries and have completed site visits and management presentations. There is no certainty that the Simberi Process or any current discussions will result in any firm proposals, or that any proposals will result in a binding transaction. Any transaction will be conditional on, without limitation, all necessary regulatory and shareholder approvals being obtained.
St Barbara wishes to reiterate that it remains fully committed to and focused upon the current Simberi Expansion Project, targeting an updated Feasibility Study in Q2 FY26. The Simberi Expansion Project significantly increases annual gold production to over 200,000 ounces with All-in Sustaining Costs of US$1,200 to US$1,300/oz and extends the mine life by 13 years to 2038, based only on proven and probable Ore Reserves. At an assumed gold price of US$2,500 per ounce the Simberi Expansion Project delivers a Post-Tax NPV (8%) of US$717 million and a Post-Tax IRR of 62%3.
St Barbara will keep its shareholders informed in respect of the Simberi Process and the Atlantic Separation Process in accordance with its continuous disclosure obligations.

Any transaction will be conditional on, without limitation, all necessary regulatory and shareholder approvals being obtained.
St Barbara wishes to reiterate that it remains fully committed to and focused upon the current Simberi Expansion Project, targeting an updated Feasibility Study in Q2 FY26. The Simberi Expansion Project significantly increases annual gold production to over 200,000 ounces with All-in Sustaining Costs of US$1,200 to US$1,300/oz and extends the mine life by 13 years to 2038, based only on proven and probable Ore Reserves. At an assumed gold price of US$2,500 per ounce the Simberi Expansion Project delivers a Post-Tax NPV (8%) of US$717 million and a Post-Tax IRR of 62%3.
St Barbara will keep its shareholders informed in respect of the Simberi Process and the Atlantic Separation Process in accordance with its continuous disclosure obligations.
